Spring Placemat

Spring is here! Dress up your spring table with these colorful placemats. The center part is basic single crochet and I've added a little surface crochet striping for interest and texture. The sides are made in a zig zag look for a little extra fun, but don't worry it is very easy! Use as many colors as you like and use remnants for the contrasting colors to make this a stash buster too! Approximately 20” x 14” Designed in worsted weight cotton yarn

Matahari Mandala

Your Nanas doilies fell sadly out of fashion for a few decades. Now doilies are back with a vengeance reimagined as these bright, pretty mandalas. This mandala is named Matahari, the Indonesian word for sun. All you need is one or more colours of your favourite 4 or 8 ply cottons, a hook and some pretty beads to hook yourself a modern day doily! (as well as a needle for sewing in ends and thread to sew some beads on). This pattern has bright photos making it easy to follow!

Crochet Bowl Cosy

I designed these easy peasy bowl cosies after seeing quilted fabric ones online. They are quickly worked up in rounds and can be made in stripes or just one colour! Just reach into your stash of scrap cotton yarns, grab a 2.5mm crochet hook and get crocheting! I chose cotton yarn for its durability. My bowl cosies have been through the washing machine over and over with minimal signs of wear. This pattern should fit a bowl approximately 15-17cm in diameter at the top, 6-8cm at the base and 7cm high.

Stars and Stripes Hand Towel

Since designing the Gingerbread Man Kitchen Towel, I've had many ask me to design other crochet keyhole towels for all other holidays and for year-round use. Add a little Fourth of July, red, white and blue, crochet decor to your space with the Stars and Stripes Hand Towel, my latest crochet keyhole towel design. YARN Cotton is the go-to fiber for crochet dish cloths, dish towels, and hand towels as it's the most absorbent. There are several cotton yarns out there that would be perfect for this project, but I chose to use Lily Sugar n' Cream 100% worsted weight cotton yarn. Lily Sugar n' Cream is available in 39 colors so I was able to find the perfect colors I needed for this project within the same yarn line.
